shower stem removal

11-18-2008, 05:03 PM

hey there,

i live in a mobil home and i'm trying to replace the fittings in my bath/shower faucet i was able to remove the hot and cold water valve stems which are brass but i don't know how to remove the shower valve stem can someone please help

Comment

The middle handle on the faucet is the diverter for the water to flow from the tub spout to the shower head .
It really depends on the type of faucet that you have as far as how to remove it. If it is a central brass or a gerber most of the time they screw ito the valve the same as the hot and cold stems do. But I really cant give you a proper answer without seeing the problem.
If you really cant figure it out I would say that you should call a licensed plumber in your area that you can trust to do the job properly for you.
